Project Overview

In this play, the actors guided the audience trough the creative world of story structure, vocabulary and theatrical staging. The actors interact with the audience. They entertained with humor, slapstick and charm. We followed the adventures of Sam and Alex who were trying to present a few of the worlds most beloved fairy tails. By the end of the program the audience learned creative tale-telling. The presenters were from Daytrippers Dinner Theatre.
